A power outage at the U.S. Capitol yesterday ended testimony being given by former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. The video shows Rep. Phil Angelides talking to Greenspan with everything went dark. Staffers then tried to open curtains to provide light in the room.

The Hill reports that Greenspan eventually gave up and left the hearing when power did not return because he had difficulty hearing without the help of microphones.

About Freedom's Lighthouse

Freedom's Lighthouse is dedicated to being a blog of record for the political history of the United States of America. The United States is "Freedom's Lighthouse" in a world where the light of freedom is not found in many places. We will record that history - past and present - with a great emphasis on video, and will also mix in some of the nation's top sports and cultural news. In all we do we will seek to uphold the conservative principles that have made America "Freedom's Lighthouse."
